Dee Gordon is the starting center fielder for the Seattle Mariners.
No, the former Marlins second baseman isn’t used to that new reality either. His training so far includes fielding a few flies (most spit out of a machine) last week and a visit from...

Dodgers 4, Kansas City 4
AT THE PLATE: Infielder Darwin Barney, who is in contention for a bench role, doubled, tripled and scored. The former Gold Glove second baseman is batting .341 in the exhibition season. Barney scored in the third inning on a...

With the Dodgers scheduled to break camp Wednesday, Adrian Gonzalez was among several veterans permitted to travel to Los Angeles a day early.
As Gonzalez packed his bags, he sounded upbeat about how the lineup has looked during the exhibition season,...

Why, you ask? A very good question. It may not come with the greatest answer but it remains a very good question.

And this is why you should be just a tad nervous about the Dodgers' rotation.
Which is not to say it won’t be phenomenal. It absolutely could be with some luck. Any rotation that leads off with Clayton Kershaw and Zack Greinke figures to be formidable....

TORONTO — Their starting pitcher failed to complete five innings. Their new reliever showed why his previous team got rid of him. They trailed by five runs and were down to their last nine outs.
